Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for extracting an edge to be used for extracting a feature point of an object in an image. The present invention proposes an image edge extracting apparatus and method that remove noise in an input image, calculate a gradient of an image in a noise-removed image, measure magnitude of the gradient, extract an edge having a maximum thickness value, and then calculate a threshold using a ratio of the extracted edge, and detect a final edge robust against noise based on the threshold.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a gas diffusion layer for a fuel cell vehicle with improved operational stability, the gas diffusion layer, which functions to supply hydrogen and air (oxygen) as reactant gases to a fuel cell stack, discharge product water generated by an electrochemical reaction, and transmit generated electricity, being formed with a thinned structure.For this purpose, the present invention provides a gas diffusion layer for a fuel cell vehicle with improved operational stability, the gas diffusion layer being formed with a dual layer structure including a microporous layer and a macroporous substrate, the macroporous substrate being formed of a material selected from the group consisting of carbon fiber felt and carbon fiber paper, the gas diffusion layer being thinned to have a thickness of 200 to 300 μm at 25 kPa and a thickness of 170 to 250 μm at 1 MPa, a density of 0.20 to 0.60 g/cm3 at 25 kPa, a porosity of 50 to 90% measured by mercury intrusion, and a through-plane electrical resistance of 30 mΩ·cm2 or lower measured at a clamping pressure of 1 MPa.
Abstract:
There is provided the touch panel by optics unit sensor that realizes one system of touch panel in all view angles, that is, from a small touch region to a large touch region, prevents a scratch from affecting on the surface of the display panel forming the touch region, enables the uniform sensing operation, and an accurate calculation of the touch distance and improves the response speed. The touch panel is designed, without the coating layer for conduction which is needed in each conventional touch panel, and has high durability, high optical transmittance and high resolution.
Abstract:
A digital cable receiver, which has a simplified structure and can reduce the fabrication cost, is disclosed. The digital cable receiver includes an out-of-band (OOB) receiver receiving an out-of-band signal outputted from a cable head-end, a point of deployment (POD) interface transmitting the out-of-band signal outputted from the cable head-end and a transport stream outputted from POD module, and receiving the transport stream scrambled at the POD module, and an out-of-band (OOB) transmitter outputting the out-of-band signal outputted from the POD interface.
Abstract:
An alignment mark and an exposure alignment system and method using the alignment mark for aligning wafers are described. The alignment mark is formed of a plurality of mesa or trench type unit marks that are aligned in an inline pattern within an underlying layer under a layer to which a chemical mechanical polishing process is applied to form an alignment signal during an alignment process, thereby preventing a dishing phenomenon caused by the chemical mechanical process.
